Tony Gunawan of the US Badminton Olympic team poses for pictures during the 2012 Team USA Media Summit in Dallas, Texas. Portraits of the US Olympic team taken by AFP photographer Joe Klamar have been criticised for using awkward poses, wrong lens and lighting. Joe brushed off most of the criticism, saying that his "only goal was to show them as interesting, as special people who deserve their fame because they are the best as what they do". AFP/Joe Klamar
